I’m trying to dissociate because it’s the best way for me to cope without turning to drugs (I would never ever ever ever ever actually take drugs but coping is hard) but anyways I’ve managed to dissociate to the point that looking at myself made me confused about why I look like what I look like so how do I keep this up to tank thru the dypshoria thx

      ooh mirrors are my enemy huh. Makes sense because when I looked at myself in the mirror I managed to snap back into reality. Good one thanks

    I usually try to keep myself occupied with music, YouTube videos or obsessively learning about something that interests me. You need to find a way to keep yourself occupied with something at all times and you should be good

      oh shit that’s exactly what I’m doing. Listening to music a lot, browsing reddit constantly/distracting myself, gaming, and watching youtube. In fact, I stay in my bed for 90% of the time (24/7). No wonder I’m seeing results

        Im at the point where I can’t distinguish what happened a week ago and a day ago because it all just blends together, but I can’t stop since existing as a moid is even bigger torture

    Probably not exactly what you want to hear but careful doing this for prolonged periods will make you borderline psychotic.

    I mean ultimately I understand. Dysphoria is a bitch. I still can’t really bring myself to stop doing this

    t.been doing this my whole life

    Keep yourself occupied with random stuff, or lie on the bed repeating negative mantras until you’re numb
